The Water tower
2022

In the turbulent whirlwind of Covid-19, my family's nomadic journey from one home to another mirrored the instability of the times. As the eldest, I carried the weight of responsibilities, a delicate balancing act between household chores and education. The strain of this juggling act threatened to unravel my sense of self, casting shadows of failure over my every endeavor.

Amidst this storm, a silent giant stood sentinel outside my window – the Water Tower. Isolated yet mighty, it remained steadfast, gifting water to the community, impervious to the capricious whims of weather. The towering presence of the water tower became a silent mentor, teaching me profound lessons in resilience.

In my struggle to do it all, the water tower became a symbol of selfless contribution. Its grandeur lay not in its size but in its consistent generosity. It offered what it had, unconditionally, teaching me that as a human, my capacity to give has limits, and that's perfectly acceptable.

The water tower's unyielding nature echoed the inevitability of change. In its shadow, I found solace, realizing that my hardships were temporary, akin to passing weather. The water tower became my guide, urging me to navigate life's tempests with resilience, reminding me that time, like water, is a constant flow, forever moving, forever changing.
